func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set<UITouch>, with event: UIEvent?) {

    for touch in touches {
        let touchPoint = touch.location(in: mapView)
        let location = mapView.convert(touchPoint, toCoordinateFrom: mapView)
        print ("\(location.latitude), \(location.longitude)")
    }
}

Add TapGesture to you mapview and follow below code

-(void)didTouchMap:(UITapGestureRecognizer*)tapGesure {

         CGPoint touchPoint = [tapGesure locationInView:selectLocationMapView];
         CLLocationCoordinate2D coord= [selectLocationMapView convertPoint:touchPoint      toCoordinateFromView:selectLocationMapView];
         NSLog(@"lat  %f",coord.latitude);
         NSLog(@"long %f",coord.longitude);

}
